Abstract

A hardened aluminum alloy, for use in the manufacture of printed circuit boards, having elevated levels of manganese and magnesium and produced as a sheet by a cold rolling process to a specified thickness.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
       1. An aluminum alloy for use in manufacturing printed circuit boards comprising: between 0.3% and 0.4% manganese, and between 4.5% and 4.6% magnesium wherein said levels of manganese and magnesium substantially harden said alloy to a tensil strength of at least 415 MPa. 
     
     
       2. The alloy as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said alloy is made into a sheet of a first thickness by a cold rolling process.
